Thursday was definitely Health Check-up day for me. By noon I was already done with 3 health appointments, one being for Abel. I refused to have him get all his shots at once so I split them up. Thankfully, his pediatrician is super cool about it. They see us often since I don’t let him get more then 2 shots at a time. For all you moms out there that are worried about the shots, I totally recommend splitting up the shots. I have definitely noticed a difference in Abel when I don’t let them shoot up his leg with a zillion shots. All offices have to allow you to do this. You may have to pay a little more and get a bitter nurse, but it is so worth it.

It just so happened that I was do for my 6 month dentist check-up and also a friendly check-in at my Primary doctor since I noticed a new, possible mole on my shoulder and I freaked out. Abel and I have been spending most of our days at the pool, so I immediately wanted to get it check out before we head to the BEACH SATURDAY!

Oh yes, it is that TIME again. OUTER BANKS HERE WE COME!!! We can’t wait to watch our little man eat-i mean-play in the sand. He got a slight taste of the wet sand on his toes at a nearby lake up in Mass. and he was IN LOVE with it.

As for the mole, it seems like my new mysterious spot is nothings serious as of yet. I ran into an old friend and she told me she got moles after pregnancy. Super! Another new physical change to tack on to the rest of my physical changes that happened after pregnancy.

And to top things off to my day, I was editing photos and my phone rings. It’s from Kaiser (our health provider) and was a recording telling me a pap smear is more fun then going to the MOVIES!!! Excuse me, I needed to hear more about this. Usually, I hang up on recordings, but this was one for the books. The lady goes on to say how at the movies you get popcorn thrown in your face and have to listen to loud teenagers, but when you get a pap smear you get to just lay down and relax. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Is this REALLY a FOR REAL recording!!! Apparently, it was Kaiser’s “cool” way of saying it is time for my annual check up and they are trying to convince me that it is so much better then seeing a movie these days. The sad reality is that I have actually had my girly parts checked more recently then I have seen a movie! Guess it is time to see a movie!

And more of my gorgeous man from the wedding weekend.

This is one of my most favorite pictures to date. Thanks to daddy Seth for capturing it.

OH MY GOODNESS, doesn’t it just melt your heart!!!! Stay away girls, he is mine for the next 20+ years.

Delicious water! I couldn’t keep his sticky fingers out of this bucket.

“I don’t know what everyone else is doing, but they obviously don’t realize how cool these sticks are!”

“YAY Auntie Shauna got married!”

“I wonder if I should eat this?”

This is very typical of Abel when I try to get a photo with him. He runs away…

Seth’s parents’ adorable neighbor, Bob. He let Shauna and Gabe use his car for their wedding pictures.

If you’re looking for an adorable ring bearer, this guy knows how to put on a show for your guests.
